“ Donald Trump lashed out Tuesday at a pair of cable networks not named Fox News for their decision not to air all of his Iowa caucuses victory speech as it happened, suggesting that what they did was so heinous that they should “have their licenses, or whatever they have, taken away.”
Dictators gonna dictate.
They wouldn’t cover his speech, but they’ll all run this story about him complaining about that…
Which is effectively the same thing, and even better for his supporters because this will be spun as “corrupt media can’t silence trump, he’s too strong!”
If you’re going to ignore a troll like trump, you have to commit. Giving in later because the troll keeps insulting you just makes it look like they were able to drag you into it.
I overheard a FOX broadcast last night while waiting for a pizza pickup in their lobby.
Holy crap that is awful. I remember it back in the GWB days and I don’t recall it being nearly as bad as it was last night.
“Democrats don’t want to understand you. They just want power.” followed by cherrypicked video footage of out of context comments from some random person. “If the Democrats get in charge, they will outlaw jesus!” followed by more bad faith video footage where someone said Christianity doesn’t belong in a courtroom setting.
It’s like they have distilled down the essence of making your grandma scared and forcing her to vote or else her grand babies will literally get eaten alive because they weren’t aborted.
This is exactly our problem.
Yes yes Trump is absolutely an issue, but it’s propaganda outlets that are ruining the country. I have no solution to that problem. It’s important to have a free press, but they are 100% taking advantage of that.
They stupidly set the stage for people like Trump, but they think they’re just doing R vs D shit so they can get their asshole of choice into power. Well the people tend to get more crazy than anyone would prefer so you open the door for them and you have no control over who enters.
Not just Fox “News” but all the alt-right AM radio pundits too. While visiting my parents, I overheard his AM radio speaker downplay events by saying that E. Jean Carroll only “claims” Trump did things, while totally ignoring the fact that Trump was already convicted of sexual assault and the judge later confirmed it was indeed classified as rape, and he had to pay her $5 million for defamation, which now there’s ANOTHER court case going on that’s bad for Trump, but all of those pesky facts weren’t mentioned, only that E. Jean Carroll was a vindictive slut. Truly maddening to me when you know the objective facts, I call it Conservative brain rot.
In the early to mid 00s, Fox News was just the “Arab people are scary!” network and wasn’t that batshit insane yet.
This is what they are telling each other… technologically advanced mermaids are out to get you: https://twitter.com/patriottakes/status/1657868909716951041
I did not believe you. What the fuck is going on. At this point I feel like I’m losing my fucking mind trying to point out to people that they need to vote because the otherside has been eating this shit up and ready to get violent about it if they are not already.
I hate the fact that I have to think about whether I am going to flee the country if they gain a majority rule.
Please get out and vote, everyone, no matter how hard they make it to do so.

Satan, right now has an entire political party in this nation doing his bidding — for free
For free, the horror!
Old man yells at cloud.
diaper-wearing buffoon uses sharpie to scribble-out cnn and nbc in an old tv guide.
They’re showing less of the train wreck than before and denying him some of the free coverage to which he feels entitled. The tantrum was inevitable.
Huh. I thought these types were bitching about “cancel culture” all the time, and donnie wants entire networks off the air because of his feelz.
Always projection. When the cons talk about snowflakes, they are some of the biggest snowflakes on the planet, all enthusiastic to vote for one of the biggest snowflakes in history.
For anyone wondering, yes he really said that. Rare moment of honesty, like “I don’t stand for anything.”
